As part of our commitment, Choose Life Ghana aim to embrace solutions to minimize and create much awareness on the issue of mental illness cases from within Ghana and beyond.
Choose life Ghana was formed to draw attention to some of the issues that continue to shake the core of our social fabric in Ghana.
Problems associated with mental illness among young and all persons across the geographical divide has become so pervasive, that the media public agencies and non-governmental organizations could no longer turn a blind eye to this existing problem any longer.
In fact, it sprang up new organizations with a sole objective to tackle the issue of mental health in our communities; ultimately choose life Ghana is a leading voice in this fight against mental illness at such a moment.
The founding objective of the organization is an important episode in the on-going contribution towards redefining and re-framing the discussion about young people in society and their capacity to overcome issue related to mental illness regardless of the circumstance.
The complexities of experiences on social media, inadequate access to counselling or proper treatment centres and ineffective education on the subject matter to combat emotional instability, substance abuse, depression and to some extent suicide among young people ultimately has led to a slew in the issue of mental illness.
Here at choose life Ghana, we believe the percentage of mental illness that go unreported and unrecognized are significant hence our unfettered desire to lead the conversation of this problem in order to generate enough awareness to address this issue head-on.
